DescriptionThe Percussion Plus locomotive whistle has 3 pipes which have been tuned roughly to a Dm triad (F5, A5, D6) and polished by hand. Being tuned in this way helps it to mimic the whistle on an old American steam train. Each low pitch is generated by a metal organ pipe with a durable plastic mouthpiece.Originally used on the Leicester and Swannington railway line, this traditional model has been in use since the early 1900s and would make a great addition to any percussionist’s kit bag.Tuned and polished by handProduces a tri-tone dissonant chord3 metal organ pipes with a durable plastic mouthpieceEssential part of the percussionist’s kit bagMade in the UK
